Biblical Objectivity in a Fallen World of Subjective Delusion

Try to stand back and objectively look at the span of time here on earth; from the Tower of Babel with its global catalyst of godlessness and passion to live an existence with out Almighty God, to the worldly brilliance and idolatrous society of Egypt. From the autocratic power of the Babylonians, to the strength of the Media Persians Empire. From the conquering speed and philosophy of Greece, to the decadent and oppressive Roman Empire. From the genus and barbarity of the Aztec, Mayans and Incas, to the godless vacuum of the European nations and lust for war. All of these civilizations have been one GODLESS, violent, decadent and oppressive cesspool of death and horror to the world's inhabitants (Rom. 1:18-32).

"My friend what is most astounding is that we haven’t evened peaked as a fallen race until we reached the 20th century"

Almighty God describes some of these global empires as ferocious wild beasts to help us better understand them from a heavenly perspective (Dan 7, Rev 13:1-2). My friend what is most astounding is that we haven’t evened peaked as a fallen race until we reached the 20th century. There has NEVER been a more violent, murderous, oppressive, narcissistic and decadent century in the history of mankind. All of our world’s exponential technological advances made in this last century has given the world more power at their finder tips to show forth the fallen godless passions and violence of the human heart (Jer. 17:9). Of course we have had some noble occasions and humanitarian exploits through out this time, but these are but a faded blip and pale exponentially in comparison to mankind’s history of violence, lust and decadence (Rom 3:3-23). The out working and horrific consequences from the billions that have inhabited planet earth since Babel have completely ravished and laid waste the lands and the world's inhabitants. The godless Babelology that first raised its head 4200 years ago (Gen 11:1-9), has thoroughly engulfed and saturated the world. This Babelology has made spiritually stinking drunk its billions of inhabitants (from Babel to present- 4200 years) to the crucial realities of time and ETERNITY (Eph. 2:1-3, Rev 17:1-2, 18:24). . "All of our world’s technological advances have exponentially given the world more power at their finger tips to show forth the fallen godless passions of our heart" , Even America, which was founded during the Philadelphia Church Age (from about 1700 to about 1900 – the church of the “open door” – Rev 3:7-13), was established on the bedrock of natural and moral laws and foremost acknowledged the Person of Almighty God. America was founded at the end of the world’s time line which spans about 4200 years. Just in these brief 235 years of our nation's history we have reached socially and culturally the point of no return. There has been no other nation in the world's history that has sent out the Biblical Gospel light as America has. America has been a beacon of freedom to the worlds oppressed and has been a global dam holding back the world’s anti-Semitism, oppressive tyrannies and the unbridled passions of fallen despots, especially in this last century. Let me ask you this very sobering question, “What do you think will become of the world once America restraining influence has been removed from the scene?” The very sobering answer is... GREAT tribulation and global anti -Semitism (Zech 14:2, Rev 6-16).

“What do you think will become of the world once America restraining influence has been removed from the scene?”

If you personally know the Lord as your Savior, may you pray that He will give you the ETERNAL PERSPECTIVE for our day that you might have eyes to see the reality and truth, not just from your position in Christ (Eph. 2:6, Col. 3:1-4, Rev 4-5), but also to comprehend our day and hour in which we live (Prov. 2:6, Matt. 7:7, James 1:5).

One quick prophecy of the "latter days", the period of time that preceeds the 7 year tribulation on the earth, is, the nation Israel would be back in the land and the Lord God will keep them their against all their enemies until the "day of the Lord", the return of Jesus Christ on the last day of the tribulation to destroy all the nations armies that will be in Israel to destroy her and to do the will of Satan, their father, and his evil anti christ and false prophet. God in the person of Jesus Christ will destroy them in one day and bring in the Kingdom age of the earth under the Lord Jesus Christ for 1000 years. I pray that all who read and are not saved by grace through faith only and not by any and all vain good works of their own will consider making peace with God by Jesus Christ by beliving and confessing the gospel of salvation presented by Paul to the Corinthians. I Co.1: 1 Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand; 2 By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain. 3 For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; 4 And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures

The surfeit of evil today on the earth is largely attributable to its ever increasing population with its expanded capabilities. I am by no means attempting to smuggle in a Malthusian perspective (the best secular science suggests that the earth can easily physically support far more people than it is supporting already) but pointing out the obvious fact that more sinners means more sin. However, the earthly population of sincerely believing Christians has also grown apace and has never been larger. (Where sin abounded, grace superabounded.) More upheavals and skirmishes between godly forces and ungodly ones may quite easily be in the cards, with some surprises such as China becoming an openly Christ worshiping country as the USA becomes very nominally Christian quite possible.

I pretty much agree with your eschatology, and want to comment on something weird. When “the anti-Christ” comes to fool and dominate all nations, this personage will be able even to crack the hard nut of Islam, persuading even Muslims to believe in an ostensibly peaceful single world religion. It isn’t hard to understand how he could be viewed as a global savior.
